Présentation de l'éditeur
There are other things in life, and it may be you sometimes pause in your painful striving after perfection to think of them. Then are your thanks due to the wicked and garrulous Chevalier Grammont, who observed the ways of your fathers when a merry monarch was scandalous and poor ;to the accomplished Anthony Hamilton, who recorded his observations ;to Sir Walter (needing no epithet), who edited a translation of them ;and to the serviceable Bohn, by whom or in whose spirit a revised edition has been issued. The revision need not trouble you. Very like you do not care though the prettiest and worst actress in the kingdom Rochester sprotegee, is found to have been Sarah Cooke and not Mrs. Barry.
(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compendium of historical snapshots, each aiming to bring the perspectives and motivations of notable historical figures to life in vivid detail. The author has immersed themselves in diaries, letters, and memoirs of the subjects, to uncover the innermost thoughts and experiences behind celebrated moments. These portraits range from the notorious (such as Lord Rochester) to the forgotten (like the influential Mary Manley); from the heroic (Admiral John Bingham) to the eccentric (the flamboyant George Villiers); and from the politically cunning (Sunderland) to the morally libertine (Orby). In framing these figures against the backdrop of their times, the author presents a nuanced understanding of the social and political landscape of the era, as well as the often surprising human stories that shaped history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331243489_0
